#18: Behind the Tour - Sight and Sound Theatres

Episode 18 of our Behind the Tour podcast takes us out into the rolling hills and farmlands of Lancaster County, known for its large Amish community.  Here, ACTS podcast host Aaron Cronk sits down with Katie Miller, Communications Director for Sight & Sound Theatres - a theater “Where the Bible Comes to Life.”

About 40 years ago Glenn and Shirley Eshelman started a traveling multimedia presentation that they showcased around the country.  It was so successful that the Eshelmans, who now had a young family, decided to set up their presentation permanently and have people come to them.  The Sight & Sound Theater was born.  

Now with its 2,000-seat state-of-the-art theater featuring their cast of around 50 singing live vocal music, a massive, 300-foot panoramic stage that wraps around the audience, live animals, sets up to 40 feet high, and state-of-the-art technology, the Sight & Sound shows have audiences fully engaged.  

Currently, through the end of 2021, you can see Queen Esther at the Lancaster location with the next production coming in March of 2022 is David.  Jesus was the latest show in Lancaster.  Now, in response to the past year, the Sight & Sound Theatres has a virtual location.  You can watch their productions online or on devices with Sight & Sound TV – a location that will live beyond the pandemic.
